Very cool! I've just bought an ebook which was only available from the Kindle store and loaded it to my iPod. It was very easy (I did the trick of registering a US Amazon account and sending it a gift voucher). Would be nice if you could buy books directly from the app but that might come in time. Now I just can't wait until there is a reliable jailbreak for the Touch 2G so I can try and remove the DRM and put the book on my DR1000S.

I think this was an excellent decision by Amazon because many people will try reading on their iPhone and then be seduced into buying a Kindle.
